Camp 928 has been mid-June in the past, but that has conflicted with Father's Day. A week later would bump us into the busy season here, and a week earlier would have us sharing the roads with a massive motorcycle rally in Lake George. But they moved Americade up a week, so we're going to try moving Camp 928 up a week, to June 8 to 11. I know being just a week after "Sharks" is not ideal, and a little disrespectful, too, though it is 800 miles from here. There are 928 guys who have never been to Camp 928 because of Father's Day.
The change in weekends means some other changes -- no stopping in at the North Hudson car show, no F1 race to watch together on Sunday morning. I'm contemplating a trip to the Saratoga Automobile Museum, where there is special exhibit of cars used in Bond films. Sunday morning? I may be able to arrange something special for the group - a car show out in front, say.

Where does "frenzy" as a collective noun for sharks come from?

Frenzy
Frenzy is derived from the Latin word phreneticus meaning "delirious." If you're in a frenzy, you're certainly delirious. You can be in a frenzy because something made you mad, happy, or even just hungry — whatever makes you so crazy you're not thinking clearly. Frenzy is often used when talking about a group of people (or animals) who get worked up at the same time about the same thing, like sharks near tasty fish or teenagers near pizza.
